    There are differences between child molesters, pediphiles, and child rapists. You need to know those differences.


    So how can someone do this, there are so many reasons and no excuses.

    • IMO the fact that you can STILL love someone who has hurt your child means that YOU are sick and it is reflecting on your child. You need to seek therapy, and keep your children away from these people permanently. BTW, if you think that nothing is wrong with your answer, I suggest you print it out, and take it to your local children's services dept and show it to them. They will take care of everything from there.

    • I never said I would allow him back, you judge when you don't know anything. I came here hoping to find answers. You have confirmed there are none. People like you are why so many cases of molestation and rape go undocumented because you condemn the victims.
      Thanks for making it easier to never ask for help. And to anyone who was going to ask for help now reading this, will think twice before doing so.
      I am angry that this happened, I am hurt and discusted. I will never allow him or anyone else near my child again. That was never the question!

    • You are making some very huge jumps in logic. The fact is I do know, and although you may have changed your original answer it does not mean I did not read it. You said that although this man was in jail for molesting your daughter, you still loved him. News flash! As a victim, of abuse I can tell you that your DAUGHTER did NOT choose to be molested but YOU chose to allow that person into HER life to destroy it. How, in any way, you could still love this man after taking away so much from your daughter is IMO inexcusable

    • By the way YOU are looking in the wrong place for such serious answers. Go to a therapist, get your daughter to a therapist, she is probably in desperate need of one after what she has had to live through, and from your ORIGINAL answer, so are you. One other thing YOU ARE NOT THE VICTIM, your daughter is. You are a coconspirator
